Echoes of Earth continues to be India's greenest music festival. Nestled among lush greenery, the festival presents a stellar line-up featuring over 40 International and Indian musicians performing on four uniquely designed stages, celebrating one Earth. This is a festival that assembles people from all walks of life and unites them with a celebration of great music, art and culture, while upholding the leave no trace policy, entailing a deep commitment to the sustenance and preservation of the Earth. The pioneering spirit of the festival rests on the elements of 'reduce, reuse, recycle' - using old, discarded, recycled and up-cycled media in the most unique and creative ways. All our infrastructure at the festival is constructed adopting environmentally conscious practices, thereby preserving the land and its integrity. Through this, we aim to create a space for people to witness sustainable practices at play, and to create awareness of a sustainable lifestyle. Echoes of Earth is the brainchild of Swordfish Events & Entertainment Pvt Ltd and Watson's. Swordfish Events & Entertainment is an innovation agency in the event and marketing space headquartered in Bangalore, India with a Global footprint. Watson's is Bangalore's popular neighborhood pub, known for its culture of bonhomie, good times and passion for music. A mutual love of music, appreciation for India's musical heritage,a sense of community and concern for environmental sustainability brings the two businesses together for a common cause: the festival - Echoes of Earth.

Echoes of Earth is a safe environment where people have the freedom to explore, relax and meet like-minded people. With our carefully curated line-up, visually striking stages, and interactive workshops, Echoes creates a unique experience for every festival-goer amidst the lush greenery of our festival grounds…

Echoes of Earth is a space for expression and a platform for artists to showcase their art. Our uniquely designed stages and art installations are put together by our artists using recycled and upcycled media collected from junkyards. These installations bring our festival grounds to life and play an important role in our understanding and learning of sustainable art.

Echoes of Earth has always focused on the importance of culture, as the art around us has arisen from it. With music and art taking new forms every day, we aim to keep the culture alive by dedicating elements of our festival to ancient art forms. Over the years we have celebrated culture through performances, themed stages, museums, workshops, and much more.
